英字新聞を読むには各単語の形式を知ることが大事！
英語を勉強し始めたばかりの段階だと、教材と違って英字新聞を読むのはかなり難しいと思います。それぞれの新聞が独自の書き方をもっていたりもするので。なので、僕が補足をつけながら、英字新聞を読むのお手伝いしようと思います。教材の文法には慣れたけど英字新聞はまだ苦手という、初級ー中級あたりの人用の解説です。
何回も言いますが、新聞を読むためには各々の単語が名詞（noun）なのか、形容詞（adjective）なのか、副詞（adverb）なのかがめちゃくちゃ大事になってきます！文法はほんっっっっっっとうに大事です！！！一緒に一つずつやっていきましょう！僕の勉強がわりにもなっているので、僕が知っていることは飛ばしていたりします。なので、何かわからないことがあれば気軽にコメントください。できるだけ答えます！よろしくお願いします 😉

A Utah high school has launched an investigation after footage showed a female teacher’s aide sitting on a male student’s lap in class.
Footage recorded by a student on Friday at Granger High School in West Valley City, shows a teacher’s aide sitting on a male student’s lap as she uses a computer in the classroom.
The woman in the footage is a teacher’s aide which is not a licensed position. She has been employed at Granger High since the beginning of the year as an hourly employee, KUTV reported.
A student who is in the same year but was not in class at the time of the incident described her behavior as sickening.
The student, who didn’t want to be identified, said: ‘The teacher was sitting on a student’s lap on her computer, she acts like she really doesn’t care.
‘I don’t think she was innocent at all doing it. It’s just very disruptive, and how can she even do that? It’s very sickening.’
A Granite School District spokesperson said they are investigating a possible breach of the school’s policy. It is not known what her motivation was for sitting on the student’s lap.
She has not yet been charged with a policy violation or with a crime and as a result her identity is not being revealed by the school.
In a statement given to KUTV the school said: ‘This employee is an hourly aide who works with students in our credit recovery program (assisting the teacher who oversees this program).
‘She has been employed at the school since the beginning of the school year..’
They claimed that a parent had initially reported the video to the school administration on Friday.
The spokesman added: ‘The employee has not been to work since it was reported. The video speaks for itself and we anticipate taking appropriate action as soon as our investigation is complete.’

speaks for itself (phrase)
Cambridge Dictionary によると ” If something speaks for itself, it is clear and needs no further explanation: “という風に記載されていますね。
例文：

His success as a lawyer speaks for itself.
anticipate vs expect
Macmillan Dictionary によると “These words are often used interchangeably, but anticipate means to expectsomething and take action in expectation. Expect means regard as likely to happen and does not require any action. “という風に記載されていますね。
最後に、内容が理解でき、新しい単語も知ることができたら、必ずCambridge Dictionaryか、Macmillan Dictionaryで例文を読むようにしてください。そして一番シンプルで、自分が日常使いしときやすそうなもをノートやスマホに書き溜めておいてください。そしてこれを移動中の時などに声に出して覚えることが本当に大事です！（電車では難しいので、僕はよく歩きますw）
これをしないと全然伸びていきません！
